In case you all wanted to e-mail or write to request samples...here ya go. We would also like to mention that the intent of this post is not to get freebies, it's to expose those interested in trying new products for future purchases. If we abuse the samples from these companies, they are likely to not provide them anymore.

We'll be updating/correcting/adding to this list as time goes by. Please feel free to PM new companies to either of us as you all find them. Thanks. ---Art & Rob (AACJ, Rob_TN)

Thanks for the compliments, gents. It was a lot of work, but certainly worth it. In the next few weeks I am going to be sending out letters requesting samples to these companies. I think letters seem more professional and hopefully more likely to be answered in a positive manner. I hope to amass a massive stockpile of samples from across the globe.

The Big List has been cleaned up a bit, updated, and several more companies added. New additions will always be added to the bottom of the list. The Big List lists companies in no specific order...obviously.

I'm not a noob anymore, assah! (That's Korean for awesome, kickass, yes!, woohoo...or any other arrangement of happy exclamations.)

Baldchin, I'm glad you found somebody near you. Try some of their products and let us know what you think.
